Dr. John Carvalho’s provocative book “The Crisis Of Our Time” was published in 2014, and was lauded for its discussion of critical issues afflicting Europe, America, and the world at large: global health and spread of infectious diseases, economic recession, and planetary climate change. Current events, such as Italy’s COVID-19 pandemic and concurrent economic challenges have made Carvalho’s opus relevant for today’s Italian readership.

 

“After Italy’s challenges with the coronavirus and its present economic reality, I am confident that my book’s message about the relationship between emerging infectious diseases and economic and societal well being is relevant for Italians,” says Dr. Carvalho, former Harvard University academician and winner of the prestigious United States National Research Service Award. “We can see how a strong healthcare infrastructure, sound economic policy, flow of scientific information, and elimination of income inequality is important for any society confronted with new challenges like the pandemic.”

 

 

 

Dr. John Carvalho is a scientist, philosopher, educator, and human rights activist who has journeyed to 34 countries and previously lived in Rome, Italy. The book “The Crisis Of Our Time” is both a memoir of Carvalho’s life and a discussion of world challenges. In his work, Carvalho frequently references the Italian culture and his journeys to Italy’s magnificent cities: Rome, Florence, Venice, Pisa, Milan, and the countless small villages inhabiting Italy’s beautiful countryside.   In addition, Carvalho, who is half Italian and has studied the Italian language, would one day like to revisit his roots.

 

“I may retire in Italy,” says Carvalho. “It would be amazing to live among the artistic and architectural masterpieces that make Italy arguably the most beautiful country in the world. In fact, many of these masterpieces are written about in my book.”

 

John Carvalho expressly cites the importance of European literature and world history when analyzing complex, intercontinental problems and advocating effective solutions. Consequently, some media proclaim that John Carvalho is an American author with a “European voice” because he continually references Europe’s long philosophical and literary tradition when he provides insight into world affairs.

 

“I see Italian culture and that of Western Europe very significant for how we approach world problems and address the relationship between science, technology, ethics, and societal well being,” suggests Carvalho.

 

Dr. John Carvalho is an “Albert Nelson Marquis Lifetime Achievement Award” and Pulitzer Prize submitted author for “The Crisis Of Our Time”. His book has generated interest in Hollywood, California as fodder for both short and documentary films. In the United States he has done a Barnes & Noble book tour, held numerous events, and has been featured on various national and local media. Now, John Carvalho is taking his message in “The Crisis Of Our Time” to readers in Italy and the rest of Europe.

 

“We are happy that ‘The Crisis Of Our Time’ has gained attention in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom,” says Carvalho. “Now we believe it would be exciting to make news in the Italian press regarding the book and having the book more fully introduced to the Italian public.”

 

John Carvalho’s “The Crisis Of Our Time” is available at Italian bookstore Mondadori as well as on Italy’s Amazon, Barnes & Noble and the AuthorHouse website.
